  1. lol! I hope not.  Why do you think she's holding on, she's hoping to pass it down to William but doesn't want all the talk of how it will look if she does that today, overpassing her son to give to the grandson!


  2. Prince Charles of Wales will inherit a portion of the Queen's personal assets. I am positively sure, she had also left something for her other children and grandchildren. The Queen's personal fortune has been the subject of speculation for many years. Sometimes estimated at US$10 billion, recently Forbes magazine conservatively estimated her fortune at around US$500 million (£280 million). This figure seems to agree with official Palace statements that called reports of the Queen's supposed multibillion-dollar wealth "grossly over-exaggerated;" however, it conflicts with a total addition of the Queen's personal holdings. Her personal art collection is worth at least £10 billion, but is held in trust for the nation, and cannot be sold.

    The Queen also owns large amounts of property privately that have never been valued, including Sandringham House and Balmoral Castle. Press reports, upon the death of the Queen Mother, speculated that by the Queen's inheritance, £28 million of death duties were avoided on an estate worth £70 million. Furthermore there is control and ownership of the Duchy of Lancaster, which is valued at £310 million and transferred a private income to the Monarch of £9.811 million in 2006.

    The Queen also technically owns the Crown Estate with holdings of £6 billion; however, the income of this is transferred to the Treasury in return for the civil list payments.

  3. If she's like her mother she'll live long enough to outlast him...but all things considered he's not all that bad. Oh yea he was hung up on Camilla but, lordy, how many men did Diana diddle?

    At least it doesn't look like William will be as ancient as his dad when he gets to the throne.
